A dominant final 40 minutes helped the Edmonton Oilers stave off elimination, forcing a Game 7 back in Vancouver after a 5–1 win at home. After a tight first period that saw each team muster only four shots, the Oilers scored four straight for their most dominant win of the series.
There’s nothing better than a Game 7, but this is the first in Vancouver since…well, you know. If the Oilers put on a performance like they did last night, they’ll be moving on to the Western Conference Finals.
Whoever comes out on top will face off against the Dallas Stars, but the most important game of the season will be played Monday.
Charts from the big win are below!
